Think he means that if we pay big for chase will we spend less on wages to make up for it

I wouldn't of thought so seeing as that could cost us the player, if we cant agree personal terms.

Yeah, because that was really what I was advocating.

Anyway, he'd be an improvement on our current fullback situation.
However I have no idea who is available so perhaps we could do better.

It would depend on AP's budget.

I agree, I'd have thought that AP would seperate pots for wages and transfer fees so to speak

They can go surfing together.

He played 6 when he first signed for Bradford, IIRC.

In scarborough, ive heard its just like bondi beach at this time of year

Lesser of two evils, if he signs for FC does that mean Horne remains at 6, if he doesn't sign Horne moves to FB either way imo we need a new FB and Stand off using Horney as a utility back.

With O'Meley, Moa and Manu going the club should be in a financial position to add 2 decent quality props.

If AP thought just by him coming in we'd suddenly get 15/16,000 he's naive to the extreme, which he isn't. We was also getting these crowds when KR was in the Champ, I know of "KR" supporters who went to watch FC, floating supporters don't exist in Hull anymore especially with the fact KR are better than us.

Don't think the cap will stretch to ellis + 2 decent props and the reported half back and full back. I expect us to sign one overseas prop and a younger prop from a UK club - maybe watts or johnson.

I must of missed it when Ogre and Moa annouced that they won't be here next season.

What about Antonio Kaufusi? He was lacking fitness at the beginning of the season but was certainly putting himself about. Already in the country and at an awful club, would people be happy with him signing?
